Amaccao Wind Power Project
PPL is responsible for transporting and customs clearance of 12 wind turbine towers for the Amaccao Quang Tri 1 project – one of the largest and heaviest equipment projects in Vietnam, requiring safe and timely oversized and overweight transportation solutions.
Goals & Scope of Work
The Amaccao Quang Tri 1 Wind Power Plant project was implemented to exploit the renewable energy potential of the Central region, contributing to reducing the burden on the national power grid and promoting local socio-economic development.
PPL was entrusted by the Amaccao Group with the task of transporting and customs-clearing all project goods, including oversized and overweight equipment such as wind turbine towers, blades, and auxiliary components.
Key Challenges
- The heaviest piece of oversized and overweight equipment weighed 103 tons and measured 76.2 meters in length.
- The hilly and winding terrain of the Central region, along with the 245 km distance, posed significant transportation challenges.
- Stormy weather, disease outbreaks, and tight deadlines greatly impacted the construction process.
Solutions & Deployment
- PPL has mobilized a modern fleet of oversized and overweight vehicles, 90% of which are newly imported, meeting international standards for safety and load capacity.
- At the same time, PPL's team of engineers and specialists have:
- Developed detailed route plans and thoroughly surveyed each section of the terrain.
- Arranged flexible staffing and implemented continuous day and night transportation to meet deadlines.
- Strictly implemented disease prevention procedures, ensuring the health and safety of all employees during the pandemic.
